Well it was a bit difficult to set a white point. The K-5II has a
tendency to under expose with long manual lenses, and the Kalimar Mirror
Telephoto is by it's very nature fairly low contrast, and so was the
day, what would be described as cloudy bright conditions, but really not
so bright. Punching up the contrast and exposure something had to give
so I chose the water. There is still some detail visible in the water on
my monitor, but not much once the image is reduced from full resolution
to reasonable internet size. I'm just amazed that a lens that probably
had a list price of under $100.00 when new resolves as much detail as it
does.

I've been looking through my files for a good example or even a bad
example of leading lines, still haven't found one, it's been pretty
much lousy weather for photography when I've had the time, and
beautiful when I haven't. Still haven't found one. However while
looking I did find this shot of the lost Little Blue Heron from last
year.
